Guest of 12/13 info, Wednesday September 6, former diplomat Gérard Araud looks back on the 2024 presidential election in the United States. “It will be a totally bewildering election campaign. We will have Donald Trump dragged from trial to trial. On the other hand, 70% of Democrats would not want Biden as a candidate because he is too old. (…) This reflects the crisis American politics, but we can judge a political crisis of the West with a radicalization on the left as well as on the right”, specifies Gérard Araud. “Gradually, the situation deteriorated [aux États-Unis, ndlr](…) the American crisis, we can feel it”he continues.
“Virtual Civil War”
“The country itself is more and more torn. You no longer accept having a Democratic opinion when you are Republican, and vice versa. You have two Americas that ignore each other, that hate each other. It’s an atmosphere of virtual civil war”, warns Gérard Araud. Asked about the mugshot, Donald Trump’s mugshot, he confirms that it is “the king of communication. He feels his electorate and speaks to his electorate (…) in a Manichean way”says the diplomat.
